At Craydel, we believe in the power of education to transform lives and create opportunities. Our mission is to democratize access to quality higher education for students and working professionals in Sub-Saharan Africa.
We exist because we know that education should not be a privilege reserved for the few, but a right available to everyone, regardless of their background or location. We have helped over 100, 000 students find the right university and currently provide access to 500+ universities in 40+ study destinations around the globe.
Our commitment is to ensure that every student/working professional has the chance to achieve their educational and professional goals.

1) We are learner-obsessed
We put learners first in everything we do.
2) We do more with less
We stretch ourselves and our budgets to accomplish more with less.
3) We think in solutions
We know there are many obstacles in building a world-class start-up. Thatâs why we commit to identifying potential solutions every time we face a challenge.
4) We are performance-driven
We hold ourselves accountable to achieve our KPIs.
5) We are stronger together
We know that while each activity has an owner, we all depend on each other to achieve our key results.
We are not a 9 to 5 organization. We have to do whatever it takes to get the job done. Putting learners first often means meeting them on evenings and weekends.
We are not a remote culture. All departments must work closely together to achieve our goals, so we value in-person collaboration.
We do not make excuses. If something isnât getting done, we do it ourselves.
